Double dip


Ephesians 4:4-6 

4 There is one body and one Spirit, just as you too were called to the one hope of your calling, 5 one Lord, one faith, one baptism, 6 one God and Father of all, who is over all and through all and in all.

Double dip

 

Baptism in the Holy Spirit

opens up a new dimension.

A peek into the spiritual “world”

both the Holy and the evil.

To see how God performs His Will

in freedom and His Purpose

but also how the evil one

tears down the Good through the devil.

 

Satan uses the material

to do things supernatural.

He imitates God’s power

to the degree God tolerates.

The battle is for freedom

of choice in human beings.

A battle that was won by Christ

as Satan rebelliously disintegrates.

 

As evil spirits possess a person

he is baptized into a world of darkness.

He’ll then observe the Holy

from a different perspective.

He won’t show his destination

and will hide the eternal

for he doesn’t want to travel

there alone and ineffective.
